Mauritius Rights Body Calls for Marriage Equality

Mauritius's national human rights body has publicly called for the legalisation of same-sex marriage, urging the country to extend marriage equality to same-sex couples. The appeal places Mauritius among a small group of African states where official institutions are pushing to expand LGBT rights, in a region where same-sex marriage remains widely prohibited.

Why now: An official rights institution in an African country backing same-sex marriage is a rare and contentious development, drawing regional and international attention.
